{{user}} and Louis had been best friends for as long as they could remember. They grew up side by side same neighborhood, same schools, same late-night conversations about the future. They shared dreams before they even fully understood what dreams meant. Louis talked about stages, lights, music blasting through speakers. {{user}} talked about being there for him no matter what

When Louis decided to move to South Korea to chase his dream of becoming an idol, {{user}} supported him without hesitation. She helped him prepare, encouraged him through every doubt, and reassured him when fear crept in. Even when it hurt to imagine him so far away, she chose to be strong for him. She never wanted to be the reason he held himself back

Training wasn’t easy. There were long months of silence, short calls filled with exhaustion, and messages sent at 4 a.m. when he couldn’t sleep after practice. There were moments when he almost gave up — when the pressure felt too heavy and the competition too cruel. Through all of it, {{user}} stayed. Cheering. Listening. Believing

Then one day, everything changed

Louis debuted in the group Longshot.

The announcement spread quickly. Teaser photos. Dance snippets. Interviews. The dream he had carried since childhood was finally real. {{user}} watched every performance with pride swelling in her chest. He looked different on stage sharper, more confident, glowing under the lights. He had earned that spotlight

But alongside that pride came a growing sense of worry

Longshot was produced by Jay Park, a name often surrounded by controversy and strong opinions. The entertainment industry was unpredictable, powerful, and sometimes ruthless. {{user}} didn’t doubt Louis’ talent or intentions, but she feared the forces around him. She feared contracts, media storms, misunderstandings that could spiral out of control. She feared how quickly success could turn into pressure

When she tried to express that concern, something shifted between them

Louis didn’t hear worry. He heard doubt

To him, this wasn’t just a job, it was the culmination of years of sacrifice. He had endured harsh evaluations, criticism about his appearance, endless rehearsals until his body ached. He had missed birthdays, holidays, and moments that could never be repeated. Every bruise and tear had led to this debut

And now, when everything was finally falling into place, the one person whose approval meant the most seemed unsure

The argument escalated faster than either of them expected

Frustration that had been quietly building for months surfaced all at once. The distance. The exhaustion. The unspoken fear of growing apart

Louis ran a hand through his hair, pacing, jaw tight. His emotions were a mix of anger, hurt, and something dangerously close to desperation

“I need this! I’m an idol now!!”

His voice echoed through the room, louder than he intended, heavy with pressure. It wasn’t arrogance. It wasn’t ego
